Hello, everyone! 😎
Here’s one of my experiments - I wasn’t sure exactly where to post it, but the AlienArt Hive community seems like a good fit. To explain: Anyone who follows me knows that I’ve been active for several years in the LMAC (Let’s Make Another Collage) community, where we create collages using public domain sources. [Kudos to @quantumg and @agmoore].
And now I’ve animated these collages using AI. I didn’t influence the AI at all - by that I mean, specifically, the text prompt, which allows you to define very precisely what you want it to generate. So, one part is my work - the collage and the first few frames, while the animation of the collage is the AI’s interpretation. Visually, it was generated by Grok Imagine.
To accompany the images, I generated music with Suno - here I used a text prompt, which was prepared for me by Grok; in fact, I believe that when it comes to giving instructions to another AI, AI is more precise than humans, but we can discuss that...
That said, I agree with William Gibson that we live in an age of recycling. He wrote this back in 2005 in his essay (in Wired magazine) "God's Little Toys: Confessions of a Cut-and-Paste Artist," stating:
The record, not the remix, is the anomaly today. The remix is the very nature of the digital. Today, an endless, recombinant, and always incomplete process of recombination is the dominant cultural logic. We live at a peculiar juncture, one in which the record (an object) and the recombinant (a process) still, however briefly, coexist.
And when I do recycle, I do so with my own objects. I can say that the process is very engaging and two-way: I’m learning procedures for directing AI, while it receives digital objects into its database, which it uses to train...
Just two and a half minutes of your time :)
Thank you for your attention.
